I started out about 25 years ago photographing strictly landscapes,wildlife photography and using my camera skills for websites/work. Then I decided to have a go at working with models and in studios I've never looked back since. Already I have had the opportunity to work with some great models. Now experienced in studio and location.

My work as been used for-:Websites: (Hair and beauty website)AdvertisingPromotions

I try to shoot what I think others will find interesting rather than be led by others.

I shoot with professional Canon camera bodies and lenses i also have my own studio lighting so comfortable with home shoots if you would like as I feel the model is more relaxed in her own surroundings or can work from a studio or my home studio.

With my photography I like the camera to do the work and not to much use of photoshop. My work is also on Madcowsmodels under Richmemory.

Photography is my "passion and escape; I do it because I love it" "Keeping That Memory Forever"

Not only was it my first shoot with Rich, it was my first proper shoot! I was a bit nervous at first, but Rich made me feel relaxed and gave great direction. I look forward to working together again in the future.

Third shoot with Rich and our work together just improves each time and keeps going from strength to strength as well as our brilliant working relationship and strong friendship we have, Rich works so hard and definitely works to his highest potential. He puts in 100% effort in everything he does and is easily impressed by my model skills as I am his photography skills. He makes the whole of a shoot a joy and a pleasure and I just adore working with him.

We have created many amazing images together and I cannot decide on which my favourites are!! There is nobody more friendlier, chattier down-to-earth and reliable than Rich he is a credit to the photography profession.

I always have a lot of fun on our shoots and can not wait for yet again a lot more shoots to come as the next one is already being planned and Rich cannot be recommended any higher than he already is by me.

Thanks again Rich

Second shoot with Rich he is an absolute dream to work with. Rich is one of the best togs I have ever worked with because he knows how to work with you to get some amazing shots and really does make you feel comfortable and at ease. I know he always shoots to his highest potential. When I work with Rich we discuss and consider each others ideas to create the most beautiful of images.

Me and Rich have become great friends as well which is really nice as well as such a strong professional working relationship in such a short space of time.

I can't recommend Rich highly enough, if you shoot with him you are definitely guaranteed to not be disappointed.

Thanks again babe =]

Had my first shoot with Richard on Saturday 20th April at Bright Lights Studio in Long Eaton and we hit it off together instantly chatting away, getting to know one another etc!! He is one of the best photographers I can say I have ever worked with as he made me feel comfortable and relaxed the whole time throughout the shoot and took my thoughts and ideas in to consideration too =] We had a brill 4 hour shoot and Rich took some cracking shots of myself. I can't wait for our next shoot together we are planning for Sun 5th May. The only negative I have about Rich is that he puts himself down far too much as I think he is way better than his "amateur" status. I would recommend him to any and every model out there!!

Had a brilliant home shoot together. 100% genuine guy. Showed up on time (and with chocolate) always a bonus discussed ideas and gave great direction. Pre shoot comma were excellent. Friendly and professional throughout the shoot. Looking forward to our next shoot already! And cannot wait to see the images produced sure they'll be great. Thanks for a lovely morning Amber :-D
